As I write this, it’s about 12:30 AM on the day after Memorial Day. Last week was the end of my first year at MIT and the halfway point to my Master’s degree, and the several days’ worth of aftermath so far has been filled with friends, films, food, family and fun. The biggest news: I am now a cousin once removed, with the birth of Samuel Lanier to my cousin Phil and his wife Emily.
Actually, there’s tons of stuff that I want to write about, but it will have to wait until later. My folks are in town at the moment, and we’re getting up early tomorrow to hit Boston again, so more details will have to wait until later. Soon enough this new version of TOTQ will be made truly public, and I’m sure I’ll have much more to say then. Stay tuned.
